The Master Servicer shall reconcile the results of its Loan monitoring with the actual remittances of the Servicers to the Distribution Account pursuant to the applicable Servicing Agreements. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any Servicing Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer shall not have any duty or obligation to enforce any Credit Risk Management Agreement that a Servicer is a party to (a “Servicer Credit Risk Management Agreement”) or to supervise, monitor or oversee the activities of the Credit Risk Manager under any such Servicer Credit Risk Management Agreement with respect to any action taken or not taken by the applicable Servicer pursuant to a recommendation of the Credit Risk Manager. The Trustee shall furnish the Servicers and the Master Servicer with any limited powers of attorney and other documents in form reasonably acceptable to it necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicers and the Master Servicer to service or master service and administer the related Loans and REO Property. The Trustee shall have no responsibility for any action of the Master Servicer or any Servicer pursuant to any such limited power of attorney and shall be indemnified by the Master Servicer or such Servicer for any cost, liability or expense arising from the misuse thereof by the Master Servicer or such Servicer.

The Trustee, the Custodians and the Securities Administrator shall allow representatives of the above entities to photocopy any of the records and documentation and shall provide equipment for that purpose at a charge that covers the Trustee’s, a Custodian’s or the Securities Administrator’s actual costs. The Trustee shall execute and deliver to the related Servicer or the Master Servicer upon request any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary or desirable and, in each case, provided to the Trustee by such Servicer or Master Servicer to (i) the foreclosure or trustee’s sale with respect to a Mortgaged Property; (ii) any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or any other Loan Document; (iii) obtain a deficiency judgment against the Mortgagor; or (iv) enforce any other rights or remedies provided by the Mortgage Note or any other Loan Document or otherwise available at law or equity.

The Servicer (a) The Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in the same manner as would prudent institutional mortgage lenders servicing comparable mortgage loans for their own account in the jurisdictions where the related Mortgaged Properties are located and in a manner consistent with the terms of this Servicing Agreement and which shall be normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities and shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through a subservicer, to do any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which it may deem necessary or desirable, it being understood, how ever, that the Servicer shall at all times remain responsible to the Company, the Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Mortgage Collateral, and the Securityholders for the performance of its duties and obligations hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof and the servicing standard set forth above. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall continue, and is hereby authorized and empowered by the Company and the Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Mortgage Collateral, to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Company, the Securityholders and the Indenture Trustee or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge and all other comparable instruments with respect to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties. The Company, the Indenture Trustee and the Custodian, as applicable, shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder. On the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to the Servicer a power of attorney substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto. If the Mortgage relating to a Mortgage Loan did not have a lien senior on the related Mortgaged Property as of the Cut-Off Date, then the Servicer, in such capacity, may not consent to the placing of a lien senior to that of the Mortgage on the related Mortgaged Property. If the Mortgage relating to a Mortgage Loan had a lien senior to the Mortgage Loan on the related Mort gaged Property as of the Cut-Off Date, then the Servicer, in such capacity, may consent to the refinancing of such senior lien; PROVIDED that (i) the resulting Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio of such Mortgage Loan is no higher than the Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio prior to such refinancing and (ii) the interest rate for the loan evidencing the refinanced senior lien on the date of such refinancing is no higher than the interest rate on the loan evidencing the existing senior lien immediately prior to the date of such refinancing. The relationship of the Servicer (and of any successor to the Servicer as servicer under this Servicing Agreement) to the Company under this Servicing Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or agent. (b) The Servicer has entered into Initial Subservicing Agreements with the Initial Subservicers for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans and may enter into additional Sub servicing Agreements with Subservicers for the servicing and administration of certain of the Mortgage Loans. References in this Servicing Agreement to actions taken or to be taken by the Servicer in servicing the Mortgage Loans include actions taken or to be taken by a Subservicer on behalf of the Servicer and any amount received by such Subservicer in respect of a Mortgage Loan shall be deemed to have been received by the Servicer whether or not actually received by the Servicer. Each Subservicing Agreement will be upon such terms and conditions as are not inconsistent with this Servicing Agreement and as the Servicer and the Subservicer have agreed. With the approval of the Servicer, a Subservicer may delegate its servicing obligations to third-party servicers, but such Subservicers will remain obligated under the related Subservicing Agreements. The Servicer and the Subservicer may enter into amendments to the related Subservicing Agreements; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any such amendments shall be consistent with and not violate the provisions of this Servicing Agreement. The Servicer shall be entitled to terminate any Subservicing Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof and without any limitation by virtue of this Servicing Agreement; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in the event of termination of any Subservicing Agreement by the Servicer or the Subservicer, the Servicer shall either act as servicer of the related Mortgage Loan or enter into a Subservicing Agreement with a successor Subservicer which will be bound by the terms of the related Subservicing Agreement. The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a Subservicer for indemnification of the Servicer and nothing contained in this Servicing Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification. In the event that the rights, duties and obligations of the Servicer are terminated hereunder, any successor to the Servicer in its sole discretion may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, terminate the existing Subservicing Agreement with any Subservicer in accordance with the terms of the applicable Subservicing Agreement or assume the terminated Servicer's rights and obligations under such subservicing arrangements which termination or assumption will not violate the terms of such arrangements. As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Servicer, for the benefit of the Company, shall use reasonable efforts to enforce the obligations of each Subservicer under the related Subservicing Agreement, to the extent that the non-performance of any such obligation would have material and adverse effect on a Mortgage Loan. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Subservicing Agreements and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, and shall be reimbursed therefor only (i) from a general recovery resulting from such enforcement to the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts due in respect of the related Mortgage Loan or (ii) from a specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys fees against the party against whom such enforcement is directed.
Servicer The Servicer is authorized to prepare, or cause to be prepared, execute and deliver on behalf of the Trust all such documents, reports, filings, instruments, certificates and opinions as it shall be the duty of the Trust or Owner Trustee to prepare, file or deliver pursuant to the Basic Documents. Upon written request, the Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer a limited power of attorney appointing the Servicer the Trust's agent and attorney-in-fact to prepare, or cause to be prepared, execute and deliver all such documents, reports, filings, instruments, certificates and opinions.
Special Servicer The Controlling Noteholder, at its expense (including, without limitation, the reasonable costs and expenses of counsel to any third parties and costs and expenses of the terminated Special Servicer), shall have the right, at any time from time to time, to appoint a replacement Special Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loan. The Controlling Noteholder shall be entitled to terminate the rights and obligations of the Special Servicer under the Servicing Agreement, with or without cause, upon at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Special Servicer (provided, however, that the Controlling Noteholder shall not be liable for any termination or similar fee in connection with the removal of the Special Servicer in accordance with this Section 5); such termination not be effective unless and until (A) each Rating Agency delivers a Rating Agency Confirmation (to the extent any portion of the Mortgage Loan has been securitized); (B) the initial or successor Special Servicer has assumed in writing (from and after the date such successor Special Servicer becomes the Special Servicer) all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Special Servicer under the Servicing Agreement from and after the date it becomes the Special Servicer as they relate to the Mortgage Loan pursuant to an assumption agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; and (C) the Trustee shall have received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee to the effect that (x) the designation of such replacement to serve as Special Servicer is in compliance with the Servicing Agreement, (y) such replacement will be bound by the terms of the Servicing Agreement with respect to such Mortgage Loan and (z) subject to customary qualifications and exceptions, the applicable Servicing Agreement will be enforceable against such replacement in accordance with its terms. The Lead Securitization Noteholder shall promptly provide copies to any terminated Special Servicer of the documents referred to in the preceding sentence. The Lead Securitization Noteholder will reasonably cooperate with the Controlling Noteholder in order to satisfy the foregoing conditions, including the Rating Agency Confirmation. The Controlling Noteholder agrees and acknowledges that the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement may contain provisions such that any Special Servicer could be terminated under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement based on a recommendation by the Operating Advisor if (A) the Operating Advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that (1) the Special Servicer has failed to comply with the Servicing Standard and (2) a replacement of the Special Servicer would be in the best interest of the holders of securities issued under the Lead Securitization Servicing Agreement (as a collective whole) and (B) an affirmative vote of requisite certificateholders is obtained. The Controlling Noteholder will retain its right to remove and replace the Special Servicer, but the Controlling Noteholder may not restore a Special Servicer that has been removed in accordance with the preceding sentence.
